Except that if CONFIG_BUILD_ELF64 is set then we assume that the kernel
is linked in XKPHYS which results in Martin's crash since his kernel is
linked in CKSEG0.
If you can recall that was done for a micro-optimization in __pa() but it
was a huge mistake because it relies on the configuration of BUILD_ELF64
to be setup correctly by the user... So in this case there's no point to
set CONFIG_BUILD_ELF64='y' since it makes the kernel bigger and slower.
But it used to work until my change, so my own fault.
Now it's going to be fixed in v2.6.23 by Ralf's commit.
Martin, can you live with CONFIG_BUILD_ELF64='n' for now ?
